Two Friends

Sydney Dec 2022

Two Friends

It was just you and me
Happy and free
Until she came
You were not the same
Now, all I feel
Is jealousy

Feelings Lost

Sydney Dec 2022

Feelings Lost

What do I feel?
The feeling consumed me.
Is it a feeling?
hate?
or
love?
and
care?
What do I feel?

I think you can read it backwards?

The darkness swallowed
The beasts howled
In the darkness
I shivered
The river
Whispered
As
The night
Grew darker
And the noises
grew sharper
I was trapped in my head
Forever and ever

Started writing again!

She with wings

Sydney Jan 2021

She with wings

She with wings,
Bullied by the others.
She with wings,
A rare one to discover
She with wings,
Without a friend
She with wings,
Will be able to mend
She with wings,
She'll fly and she'll tend
To all her wounds
And become strong again

Wish

Sydney Jan 2021

Wish

Close your eyes
Take the butterflies
And wish upon a star

Make it big
Or make it small
Don't yell it out to all

If you do,
The stars will coo
Your wish has not come true

It will come
If good, not bad
So please don't be sad

Happy new year, everybody! Well, late new year. I hope you had a great one.

F l o a t i n g

Sydney Nov 2020

F l o a t i n g

Am I floating?
It feels like a dream
Where are you?
Oh, you're down there
I'm alone up here
Sighing,
Flying
High above the clouds
I've wondered what it was like up here
As a child
I would spend hours in my room
Thinking if I would just
Pull the curtains
Stand on the window
and just
f l y
Then be up there
Or down
If it even was real
I didn't think about how you'd cry
or her
or that random guy
But I'd fall back to Earth
To make you happy again

Fire to Water

Sydney Nov 2020

Fire to Water

I was made of fire
My situation was dire
I could not think, I could not see
But when you found your way to me
The fire extinguished
Like fire to water
The darkness ceased
Like darkness to light
You are my opposite
Yet you can calm me.

The hard moments are the parts where you trip.

When

Sydney Nov 2020

When

When was the last time
I heard you laugh?
I saw you smile?
I touched your heart?
Or you touched mine?
Eternities ago
Because you left me
To a life on my own

Happy birthday, my dear friend
Happy Birthday to you
We'll do whatever you please

I can be your love
I can be your enemy
I can be your servant
I can be your sacrifice
I can be your ally
I can be your angel
I can be your demon
I can be anything
As long as you want me to.

Angel's Tears

Sydney Nov 2020

Angel's Tears

Did you know
When it rains at night
Or in skies bright
It is an angel crying
Because one of their own has passed
It's terrifying
But they come back as a star
Winking at you
As bright lights
Guiding you
At night

No matter if angels really die, they're still there to guide you.

Thoughts

Sydney Oct 2020

Thoughts

I think 1000 thoughts a day
About how monsters take down their prey
Or swimming in a bay
I think 100 about
How a flower would spout
Or what would happen if their was a drought
I think then ten
About Japanese Yen
And how Christians shout "Amen!"
Again and again
But then there is one
About how I won
Your love
High above
And the thought is so big
I just need one
For you

Follow the others
Into the haven smothered
War screeching around you
Then suddenly stop
As if on cue
You enter
In the dead center
As prey
It has turned gray
Death looming
Powers blooming
They charge for the ****
Like lions on a hill
You are
d e a d
You think, as you bled
But how can I
Die
If I'm looking in those memories
Tonight?

The Darker Demons

Sydney Oct 2020

The Darker Demons

They paint the wall with
Red
Knife
Against your head
Sneaking through darkness
They're so heartless
If you love one
And ask them to have
Fun
It will end
With a
Gun
Your body red
Mouth full of
Lead
But they won't stop
There
Until
Their target
Is dead.

Over mountains and hills
I will follow you
On my own wills
Under skies blue
And if clouds spew
Thunder and rain
I will never wane
I was told
I was bold
To fight dragons
With dangerous talons
But I will do anything
Even take a bee sting
And to make sure you are okay
I will keep the monsters at bay.

Fly

Sydney Oct 2020

Fly

I am a dove
Caught by hunters
Let me go
Let me show myself
Let me fly
In the dark sky
I'm not a raven
Black and covered with lies
But a dove
Pure and truthful
Let me fly
Tonight
I can show you
With all my might
What's inside
Wings pure
That fly in a soft glide
Let me fly
In the dark sky
Let me fly
Tonight.

Nightmare

Sydney Oct 2020

Nightmare

Creaking boards
Hide
Under the covers
Wolves
Howling
Shut the windows
Heart
Beating
Door opens
Creaking, crawling
Lift the covers
It's a...
Eyes wide open
Light in my eye
As I try to recall the nightmare
I had that night.

Oh Moon

Oh moon
You're so beautiful
I'll tell the stars about you
Announce your name to the world
Oh, moon
You give me a crooked smile
Sideways, sometimes
But that is your face
Waiting to be lit
Oh moon
You are my life
During the night
That I stare
At.
i love you

Being Water

Sydney Oct 2020

Being Water

Silently,
Listless and still
Under the sun
The food I ate
Swims inside
A girl
Feeds me a book
Unchewed,
Just wet.
When I am angry
I rise with such power
You'd feel from Zeus
Or God
But Zeus isn't real
I look like everyone
Who bask in my reflection
But then
Leave me alone
Just
Sitting there.

Flower

Sydney Oct 2020

Flower

She opens her body to the morning sun
Pale pink
Surrounded
By her older siblings
The tall green grass
She was just born.
But then
My own sister came
And plucked the flower
I said, "Why did you do that?
It has life the same
Just as yours.
Would you do that to a tree?
A bee?"
Ever so carefully,
And regretfully,
She began to plant flowers
So we have flowers
Today.

A short story... in a poem.

Torture

Sydney Oct 2020

Torture

They sealed my eyes
With pain
They stabbed me
With their words
Wounds
So deep
They let
Their inner snakes
Bite me
All it is
Is
Torture

Through the mist
I chased her
She was far from me
But was always seen
She turned, and looked to me
She was running away
But she reached out a hand
Across the sand
I took her hand.

Treasure

Sydney Oct 2020

Treasure

I have
What many call
Treasure.
Jewels sparkling
Pink, blue
Name the colors
I have them
But those are not my treasures
I don't care
I will break them all
Or give them to you
Maybe throw them down the drain
As long as I have
You,
My treasure

Sun and moon

Sydney Oct 2020

Sun and moon

The sun gets up
"Welcome!"
The children cry
The sky starts to glow
With the sun's aura
Beating her arms
Down on the children
They start to sweat
She tries
To reach to the children
Because she's lonely
They go inside
And cry,
"It's hot outside!"
The sun frowns
And reaches to the plants instead
They bend towards her
But don't come
With her
She sighs,
And slowly starts to paint
The sky
With many colors
And welcomes the moon
Who paints it
All black.

Succubus

Sydney Oct 2020

Succubus

Crimson lips
You eye with desire
Striking
Black hair
With a blue streak
Running through
Like a stream
Ocean eyes
Stroked with trouble
A wicked smile
Upon skin
Like dew
Striking speed
That you just can't help but admire
She's evil
But beautiful
And you
Just
Fall
In love.

Breath

Sydney Oct 2020

Breath

When you are angry
Fuming, stomping
Take a breath
To take your worries
Away
Take my own
I will gladly share
Because I care
For you
Happy, calm
Oh, my dear
Take a breath
It's okay
Put your worries away
But when I run out
You are full
Of me
Even though I'm gone
And that's all you need
To be.

Life

Sydney Oct 2020

Life

Life is a rollercoaster
With many more
Twists and turns
Than a normal one.
It's like
Closing your eyes
When on a rollercoaster
You could
Find yourself
Upside down
Unexpectedly
A twist where
A loved one dies
But when
You fall out
That is
Death

Prayer from Hell

Sydney Oct 2020

Prayer from Hell

O lord, I am lost
In the depths of Hell
I have done nothing wrong
I was just on a mission
From you.

I bent down on my knees
Praying.
Hoping.
To get out of here

I called your name through prayer
Praying
The Guardian Angel
The Lord's prayer

But it seems like you want me to stay...

So let it be
My lord.

I watched beside my mother
The coffin
That carried me
She burst into tears
And whispered, "You were too young."
My father came next
In his coffin of glass
He watched beside me
My baby sister wouldn't know
Me
I was
Never in her life
It made me cry
But I saw a tear
On her cute face
My father hugged me
And little do they know
In our own groups
Angel and human
"We'll always be together"

He

Sydney Oct 2020

He

He cut my wings
To have some of his own

He stole my heart
So I'd love nobody else

He gave me pristine beauty
That others envied

He gave me truth
Brutally

As I am thankful for that...
But he stole

The things
Important to my life.

The Dreamer of Hell

Sydney Oct 2020

The Dreamer of Hell

It was a gruesome place
Blood
Weapons
Everywhere
Bloodshed.
Betrayal.
No one could see happiness
Just
Tears
Darkness
Doom.
But the dreamer of Hell
Was worst
She laughed
At the bloodshed
Cried
When it stopped
She is
Not afraid
Of anything
She always
Sees her death
Clearly
So
Gruesome
And ugly
And so
To thwart
Her only fear
She kills
Others
To stay alive.

Love never works for me

Sydney Oct 2020

Love never works for me

Love never lasts for me
Can't you see?

I fall in love
But then they dump me

Like trash, I am treated
It makes me burn when I'm cheated

They say I'm too unattractive
And dumb

With no personality at all
They drawl and drawl

But truth is
I'm beautiful
And unique

Cage

Sydney Oct 2020

Cage

I am trapped in a cage of torture
In my mind.

I have
Many fake visions

My crush
Kisses the person I most hate

My family
Is ashamed of me

My best friends
Hate me

The people I love
Make fun of me

I am abandoned
And lost
In my mind

My biggest fear
Tortures me

Which is
Not being free

Focus on the present

Sydney Oct 2020

Focus on the present

I was a shy girl
Already writing
What was going inside my head

I wasn't what my parents
Expected me to be
I wanted to live up to their expectations

I was a liar
Trying to be truthful
But I couldn't

But...
Wait, what am I doing?
We're not living in the past
But the present

So it's time
To focus
On the present.

The Clouds

Sydney Oct 2020

The Clouds

The clouds came in to hide the sun
And they started to cry
Because they had no fun

The clouds stomped their mighty feet
Boom, boom
But I thought the day was going to be sweet

Then the sun pushed them out of the way
And gave the clouds a warning
“Okay,” they’d say
And they went on their way

The Beach

Sydney Oct 2020

The Beach

We went to the beach

Not a figure of speech

There is lots of beech

Pale peach sand

Oh so very grand

Not too bland

It was very hot

The tiny rocks a dot

And people cooked things in a ***

Swim in the sea

Swimming freely

And we talked about… bees?

Today we had fun

Under the sun

But now the day is done.

Perspective

Sydney Oct 2020

Perspective

Everyone always had a perspective
The very same one
That said,
"We are safe, the danger none"
"But the real danger is fantasy."
But I was brave, the only one different
I believed that this was wrong
So I sang a song
Did you think I was going to say "So long?"
No. This needed to change
But it was a bit strange...

Sin

Sydney Oct 2020

Sin

When you sin
It makes a black hole in your body of light

That one sin
Starts gnawing at the light

If you sin more
It takes over your body

Like a disease
Until the light is gone

And when you die
It takes you to hell.

What she said to me

Sydney Oct 2020

What she said to me

I was one of the lost
Broken, tired, and abandoned

I roamed the streets
Like a scary monster

But a woman
Not afraid of me
Came up

She said
"Don't you worry, child of god"

She bowed,
And left

But then
She gave me courage
To be

The noble
Honest
Loving

Kind
Person I am today.

The Land

Sydney Oct 2020

The Land

There was a land

Filled with sand

It was grand

Whoever went to see

Got lost at sea

And came back in a heap

But a girl did see

The land at sea

And collapsed on the land with a heap

The girl laid on the sand

Sand in her hand

And said “This land is grand.”

Sunset

Sydney Oct 2020

Sunset

Upon a roof

I met a beautiful thing

A beautiful sunset

Its beautiful colors bold

Are like gold

It was like it could get rid of mold

The light fading fast

I didn’t want the colors to pass

“Why won’t you stay?” I asked

The light faded, at last

The day had passed

I climbed down onto the ground vast

I went inside

And quietly sighed

The beautiful light had died

What is love?

Sydney Oct 2020

What is love?

If she was in hell
You would go with her

She is the falling sky
You'd hold up forever

He is the darkness
You'd give up light for

He is death
You would gladly die for

She is the all-mighty goddess
You'd bend your knees to

But if she didn't want a kiss
Being in love with you
It was okay

I'm your opposite

Sydney Oct 2020

I'm your opposite

I'm your opposite
Did you know?

If you were a synonym
I'd be the antonym

If you were the night
I'd be the day

If I were the moon
You'd be the sun

If I were the darkness
You'd be the light

But if you wanted to switch roles
I'd do it gladly

And that's why
We are friends.
